    YOU'RE NOT ALONE!

    The Law Enforcement Advocate is trained in issues of sexual assault and domestic violence and has the ability to provide crisis intervention in conjunction with law enforcement agencies. The LEA services are to:  explain victim’s rights, provide assistance and support for the victim throughout the criminal justice proceedings, safety planning, supply victims with information and referrals, accompany the victim to court dates, hospital visits, statements/interviews, and supply an emergency 911 cell phone. There is no fee for any LEA service!


     In addition to the above duties, The LEA is also responsible for an Outreach and Awareness Program. This program reaches out to the community to increase awareness of domestic violence and sexual assault. The goal of the program is to develop a strong, comprehensive support network for victims, including community trainings and meetings.
